As long as its fairly priced, im in Id love to have paddles and keep my airbag

 

Manual Mode is electronic already. There should be no more delay than there already is

...no, this relies on an automatic transmission and clutch control, as with all other sequential paddle shifting. This one doesn't really do anything different than using the manual mode of the automatic shifter, which means it won't be any harder on the transmission and engine than if you simply used the automatic shifter to change gears like AT owners can do already.

I own a 6MT, and don't know that i'd ever go to an AT, but this looks very polished and refined. I'd say that if you do go to production, make the paddles the same color as the steering wheel inserts and you'll have alot more people buying it.

 

What is the ball-park figure of this if it goes into production?

 

People have posted there being more of a delay with the paddles added...

I dont see why there would be an added delay as some people have said. It doenst make sense to me. Its still sending the same electrical signal for an upshift or downshift...so how can relocating the switches affect it? I just dont get it. If its going slower, then somebody did something wrong when designing/building it. I'd just like to know what could cause a delay.

James, when you get it working, give us some feedback about the response time.

Also, just my own suggestion, if you could use paddles that are simliar to the ones on G35's then it'll look pretty OEM.

 

Im sure they did post it, I just do not see how it is possible.

 

I'm interested...assuming price is reasonable I'm in.

 

Are you talking about this kit?


If so, i dont think it will work for the 350z because the paddle shifter switch on the right side is to deep and would hit the key switch on the column. Youd have to mount the unit lower and i think that would not be comfertable. But i might stop by and talk to Jason at Riverside Infinity and check them out since i drive by everyday on the 91

Interested to see price range.

subscribing too ^_^

 

There's a couple of videos floating around showing the "other" paddle kit in action. There's definitely a delay when using the paddles. If this kit can get rid of that delay then you'll have yourself a winner.

 

looks like you only have 1 pedal, no braking necessary?

 

You mean the this one?

 

that is one ugly beach....

 

I'd still hit it...

 

Thats the one I saw, then a post or 2 about it on here or on 350zmotoring.
